If anyone offers the Packers a 3rd round pick or higher, they should definitely jump all over that.

I disagree. My starting asking price would be a 2nd and nothing less. We chose him in the 5th, originally he was mocked as about a third rounder. Now he has two years of being a backup to a very good qb, getting coached by maybe the best organization in football for developing young qb's. And given the fact that this was a awful qb draft. At the same token New England turned down a first round pick for Jimmy Girappolo. And I'm not ceratain that he's any better or that much better than Hundley. Keep the guy unless someone offers you a boatload. We need a backup until we trade him next season.

Career stats:
2/10
17 yards
0 TD, 1 INT
1 fumble

I know stats don't tell the whole story and all that jazz but I really can't see why anyone would give us a 2nd for Hundley. He played very well his first preseason, played just one game his second preseason and has only played garbage time (and somewhat poorly) in official games. Aren't we just overvaluing our own players?

Those stats don't tell any part of the story. Referencing them is moronic. A team would give up a 2nd for Hundley because of what they see on tape in terms of mechanics, control of the Offense, etc. Teams give up 1st and 2nd Round picks for QB's that have never played in the NFL. In fact, no NFL Draft pick has played in the NFL. So makes Kizer worth a 2nd Round pick but not Hundley?

As I understand it, NFL teams were high on some of Hundley's traits, but wouldn't pick him high because a) he showed very little improvement at UCLA over his career and b) some of his flaws were hard fixes.

The Packers are in position to showcase both "he's made progress" and "look at all the stuff he's fixed" just in the preseason this year. He had already got a bunch of stuff cleaned up by his first NFL preseason.

Got on here to read what you all had to say about the draft and seen this. Bunk story guys!!!

not surprising. thanks for the update

I sort of got the sense that people (Demovsky in particular) were just throwing out plausible rumors because otherwise they wouldn't have anything to talk about Friday afternoon.

Still unclear on where "the Packers might take Kizer" comes from.

I saw that article when I woke up, that the Packers had interest in Kizer at 33. Come on

The dumbest thing about that was, how exactly would you plan to get a good return on investment for that? It would have required flipping him for a first round pick later on. And doesn't really cover the time spent increasing Kizer's value, and the loss of a player that would help the Green Bay Packers as a second round pick. Hundley is an asset because he was a 5th round pick that will turn into something better, whether that is via trade or a comp pick._________________GO PACK GO!

Our starting asking price should be a 2nd and nothing less, sadly, I don't think we will get that. We should hold out for a 2nd until close to the draft and then settle for a 3rd if we have to. I'd rather get something for him than wait until he is a free agent and get nothing for him.

Any chance the Packers leaked some things to help create a market? That was my first thought when I heard the Kizer thing, and then later the Hundley thing.

This, the Packers don't leak info unless they wanted it to be leaked.

Hundley has probably one of the best groups of playmakers for a 2nd group in the NFL. Janis, Allison, Davis, Yancey, Dupree, RichRod, Kendricks. He should have a field day this preseason and increase his value._________________
